Furniture - Me, You and the Name
Buy us a drink and i'll get you in a magazine
Don't smile like that now, would i lie to you
Everyone dreams of being famous i can make you dreams come true
I'm normally in with the in crowd but i just popped out
I'm one of those high-life bastards i'm always reading about
I know the clubs that never shut and the parties that never end
I can't step inside the circle without meeting and old friend
And i know the name
And i know the name
I'm gonna hold onto to what i've got
And i know the namе
And i know the name
I'm gonna hold on to what i've got
I sharеd the name's champagne when he got his first number one
I'd be running some little errands for him when the day was done
Anyone worth reading used to get their tips from me
I showed up in a couple of videos in 1983
Come on, get us another never and i'll tell you all
Dish the dirt on anyone you want, larger or small
Well the name was a name with no brain, he didn't deserve his success
Shot his mouth off once and i sold his story to the press
And i know the name
And i know the name
I'm gonna hold on to what i've got
And i know the name
And i know the name
I'm gonna hold onto to what i've got
I can see by the cut of the cloth that you're doing alright
I know you play rock 'n' roll in a pub every monday night
And it's nice to talk to someone with both feet on the ground
Get us in another, i just stay here they shut it down
All those would-be creative shitheads i know are going stale
Well they sit behind their desks and they worry that they're gonna fail
And you know it'll hit me the same way when i'm twenty-three
And my phone was cut off in april and i've not been home for weeks
But i knew the name
Yeah, i knew the name
I'm gonna hold on to what i've got
And i know the name
And i know the name
I'm gonna hold on to what i've got
Yeah i know the name
And i know the name
Do you wanna hold on to what i've got?
And i know the name
Do you wanna know the name?
Do you wanna hold on to what i've got?

I'm moving I'm not going to rest till I find you I'm following one step behind you I do what I do to remind you I'm following one step behind you

Here in these arms That held on to some sort of truth for a while You can sleep, if you like And while you sleep I will sing low to you in a lullaby style So your dreams may be
Furniture - On a Slow Fuse
Cold As in us As in dying As in over Cold As in through As in burnt out As in done for Nothing spectacular We grew And then we grew up
Furniture - Subway to the Beach
One of us is dying One of us is dead One of us is wishing we were somewhere else instead One of us is walking Down towards the sea One of us is drinking One of us is
Furniture - Song for a Doberman
I woke up in someone else's bed To face the jury of my peers Broken bottles inside my head It's been the same for years But i don't understand the charge And
Furniture - Friend of a Friend
Out on the town with a friend of a friend I'm not ready, I’m not ready When something else hadn't come to an end... Oh let go, oh let go Please have the grace to let
Furniture - Hard to Say
So I'm Just a footnote in your history book So I'm Just a second in your day But in that moment does your heart leap into your mouth? Or is that hard to say?
Furniture - Slow Motion Kisses
Come and give me one of those big slow motion kisses Make me turn to stone Say the things you say that give me pins and needles Chill me to the bone It's a heart attack
Furniture - A Taste of You
This town, this town It doesn't look the same They're gonna give cleaning up the streets a bad name The arcades and the clubs Have been shut down Now there's rows
